Fugue For Tinhorns by Barry Manilow
Fugue For Tinhorns lyrics
Songwriters: Loesser, Frank;
I got the horse right here, his name is Paul Revere
And here's a guy who says if the weather's clear
Can do, can do, this guy says the horse can do
If he says the horse can do can do, can do
I'm picking Valentine Cause on the morning line
The guy has got him figured at 5 to 9
Has chance, has chance, this guy says the horse has chance
If he says the horse has chance has chance, has chance
No way for Paul Revere I'll bite, I hear his foot's all right
Of course it all depends if it rained last night
I know it's Valentine, the morning works look fine
Besides the jockey's brother's a friend of mine
Needs race, needs race
This guy says the horse needs brakes
He says that the horse needs brakes
Needs race brakes, needs brakes
Hey wait a minute fellows,
Have you considered this?
Well, anyway, it's my turn to sing
So shut up, really?
But look at Epitaph, he wins it by a half
According to this here in the Telegraph
Big threat, big threat, this guy calls the horse big threat
If he calls the horse big threat, big threat, big threat
I'll tell you Paul Revere, now this is no bum steer
It's from a handicapper that's real sincere
I go for Valentine 'cause on the morning line
The guy has got him figured 5 to 9
So make it Epitaph, he wins it by a half
According to this here in the Telegraph
Paul Revere, Valentine, Epitaph
I got the horse right here
